This week, we have been learning all about winter. ❄️

🎨 We had a blast with messy snow play, learning how cold ice is, watching it melt, and creating tons of fun art! 🎨

➡️ Children learning about ice gain sensory experiences, understand basic science concepts like melting and freezing, problem solving, and nurture curiosity about the world around them.

💗💗 When you play dress up, you become a superhero, a princess, or anything you imagine, helping your brain grow big and strong while having tons of fun! 💗💗

➡️ Fantasy play is crucial for children as it fosters creativity, helps them develop problem-solving skills, and allows them to explore emotions and social roles. It enhances cognitive and language development, encourages empathy, and supports emotional resilience. Through fantasy play, children can safely experiment with different scenarios, leading to a better understanding of the world around them.

Term 3 has started, and we are already getting stuck into our weekly themes! 😎

This week, we are learning all about our emotions and feelings. 😀😔😤🥱🥰😋

We have been doing fun activities and making new discoveries about our emotions. ❤️

➡️ Children have a wide range of emotions like happiness, sadness, anger, and fear. It's important to help them understand these feelings and express them in healthy ways, such as talking, drawing, or using play. This supports their emotional development and helps them navigate their experiences.
